{"id":"GHSA-fw47-9c62-h3vw","summary":"Electron: HID and USB permission checks can be attributed to the wrong origin","details":"### Impact\nFor `hid` and `usb` permission checks made from an iframe, `session.setPermissionCheckHandler` was given the top-level frame's origin and details instead of the requesting frame's. Apps that allow these permissions based on origin could grant an embedded frame access intended for the top-level page.\n\nYou're only affected if you use `setPermissionCheckHandler` with origin-based logic for `hid` or `usb` and embed cross-origin iframes with `allow=\"hid\"` or `allow=\"usb\"`. Apps that don't delegate those features to untrusted iframes are not affected.\n\n### Workarounds\nDon't add `allow=\"hid\"` / `allow=\"usb\"` to untrusted iframes, or make the decision in your `select-hid-device` / `select-usb-device` handler using `details.frame`.\n\n### Fixed Versions\n* `45.0.0-alpha.5`\n* `44.3.0`\n* `43.7.0`\n* `42.11.3`\n\n### For more information\nIf you have any questions or comments about this advisory, email us at [security@electronjs.org](mailto:security@electronjs.org)","aliases":["CVE-2026-113800"],"modified":"2026-10-21T17:35:19.879130922Z","published":"2026-10-21T17:21:51Z","database_specific":{"nvd_published_at":null,"cwe_ids":["CWE-346"],"severity":"MODERATE","github_reviewed":true,"github_reviewed_at":"2026-10-21T17:21:51Z"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/electron/electron/security/advisories/GHSA-fw47-9c62-h3vw"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/electron/electron/pull/53656"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/electron/electron/pull/53679"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/electron/electron/pull/53688"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/electron/electron/pull/53689"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/electron/electron/pull/53736"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/electron/electron/commit/22de0a3a06cfd3174fc6c59c3810ab5e1c91bf1a"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/electron/electron/commit/36042b2e1b1c60c67b05ba0e95d1a34f608b9742"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/electron/electron/commit/56cc43eb677d46b86b0d3f49b5fba71404ab1ff0"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/electron/electron/commit/922073f8601479e93071f56f0745041291b206fd"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/electron/electron/commit/c965cee73284c4b230a81d51a7db6115e55da8c0"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/electron/electron"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/electron/electron/releases/tag/v42.11.3"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/electron/electron/releases/tag/v43.7.0"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/electron/electron/releases/tag/v44.3.0"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/electron/electron/releases/tag/v45.0.0-alpha.5"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"electron","ecosystem":"npm","purl":"pkg:npm/electron"},"ranges":[{"type":"SEMVER","events":[{"introduced":"45.0.0-alpha.1"},{"fixed":"45.0.0-alpha.5"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/github/advisory-database/blob/main/advisories/github-reviewed/2026/10/GHSA-fw47-9c62-h3vw/GHSA-fw47-9c62-h3vw.json"}},{"package":{"name":"electron","ecosystem":"npm","purl":"pkg:npm/electron"},"ranges":[{"type":"SEMVER","events":[{"introduced":"44.0.0-alpha.1"},{"fixed":"44.3.0"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/github/advisory-database/blob/main/advisories/github-reviewed/2026/10/GHSA-fw47-9c62-h3vw/GHSA-fw47-9c62-h3vw.json"}},{"package":{"name":"electron","ecosystem":"npm","purl":"pkg:npm/electron"},"ranges":[{"type":"SEMVER","events":[{"introduced":"43.0.0-alpha.1"},{"fixed":"43.7.0"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/github/advisory-database/blob/main/advisories/github-reviewed/2026/10/GHSA-fw47-9c62-h3vw/GHSA-fw47-9c62-h3vw.json"}},{"package":{"name":"electron","ecosystem":"npm","purl":"pkg:npm/electron"},"ranges":[{"type":"SEMVER","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"42.11.3"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/github/advisory-database/blob/main/advisories/github-reviewed/2026/10/GHSA-fw47-9c62-h3vw/GHSA-fw47-9c62-h3vw.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N"}]}
